Stone County Detention Center
The Stone County Detention Center sits at 1009 Sheriffs Drive in Mountain View. The jail was built in 1994 and has been expanded since. Current capacity is 40 inmates spread across four housing units. One unit is set aside for female inmates. The facility takes in detainees from Mountain View Police, the sheriff's deputies, and Arkansas State Police troopers working the area.
The jail roster page image shows the public layout for Stone County custody data. The online view splits into current inmates, new inmates (fresh bookings), and a recent releases section.
Each profile in the roster covers the full name, identifying details, arrest and court dates, charges, and the mugshot. That makes the Stone County roster one of the more complete public listings in rural Arkansas.
Stone County Jail Roster Online
The sheriff splits the public roster into three sections. The current inmate view shows everyone held at a given time. The new inmate section lists fresh bookings from the last 24 to 48 hours. The recent releases section lists names of people who came out of custody in recent days. That last view is the key search for Stone County released inmates.
Each record includes full name, identifying details, booking date, court date, charges, and a mugshot. The list updates after each booking and each release. When a name drops off, the release has already been processed by the jail staff.
- Current inmates list for active holds
- New inmates list for fresh bookings
- Recent releases list for past few days
Note: A name that drops off all three Stone County roster views may mean the person was moved to state prison or another jail on a hold.
